Re: Wireless Gamepad F710 with Windows 8.1

Here is another solution for f710 in windows 8.1 x64. I don't like analog mode with xbox360 driver so I find how to make it work in digital mode with original logitech software. The problem actually isn't in driver it's in driver signature.

Re: Wireless Gamepad F710 with Windows 8.1

The issues with the F710 and any other Logitech controller are not limited to Windows 8.1.

On my Windows 7 PC the controller has the same issues.On both Windows 8.1 and Windows 7 there are currently no fully working drivers since Logitech has not updated them and I assume the issues were introduced with DirectX 11.1 which is also installed on Windows 7 once you update the Internet Explorer to version 11 - which is strongly recommended even if you - like me - never use it due to the fact that a lot of programs make use of the IE's engine (eg Steam).

I read somewhere in this thread that Logitech was allegedly working on a new driver. Dear Logitech tech staff, I hope you are really working on this since we have to use drivers from a third party (Microsoft) to get a product from YOU (Logitech) working. That lack of support is not appreciated.

I can use my F710 on Windows 7 and Windows 8.1 but the force feedback (vibration) is no longer working!!!

Has anybody found a way to re-enable it?

The gamepad itself used to vibrate once you switch vibration on or off but now pressing that button does NOTHING. This can only be explained by the incompatbility between the Xbox 360 controller driver and the gamepad's internal mapping which is not correctly adressed by the driver.

Dear Logitech, please provide us with new drivers for Windows 7 AND Windows 8/8.1 that support vibration. Thanks!

If anyone still having issues with this this is how I solved it without having to install any other drivers.

Press the Windows Key on Keyboard > Type joy.cpl and hit enter > It bgind up the Game Controler panel, Click Advanced, and it started installing the drivers automatically and everything worked after that.

That's how I got that done anywya, I was looking on this site since everyone was mentioning using the Xbox 360 drivers and when i opened up the joy.cpl I notice it installing by itself.

Re: Wireless Gamepad F710 with Windows 8.1

can somebody help me?? I tried all of the methods, but with all of them I failed to make it work... from Logitech I've got a new nano receiver but it didn't solve my problem...the green light just blinking...and doesn't do anything...in the device manager it doesn't recognize as an unknown device, so I can't update with xbox 360 software...I tried to reinstall and almost everything, sometimes it shows gamepad f710 sometimes rumble pad...
